Aims. We present here the list of planetary transit candidates detected in the first long run observed by CoRoT: LRc01, towards the galactic center in the direction of Aquila, which lasted from May to October 2007.
Methods. ...

Context. The CoRoT satellite searches for planets by applying the transit method, monitoring up to 12,000 stars in the galactic plane for 150 days in each observing run. This search is contaminated by a large fraction of ...

Aims. The CoRoT space mission continues to photometrically monitor about 12,000 stars in its field-of-view for a series of target fields to search for transiting extrasolar planets ever since 2007. Deep transit signals can ...

Aims. We report the discovery of very shallow (ΔF/F ≈ 3.4×10−4), periodic dips in the light curve of an active V = 11.7 G9V star observed by the CoRoT satellite, which we interpret as caused by a transiting companion. We ...
